Technology specialist Marco is using this year’s Fruit Focus event on July 22 to demonstrate how they can deliver dynamic profitability to the soft-fruit industry through innovative, highly cost-effective solutions.
The company already works closely with leading soft-fruit brands around the world, bringing increased efficiency and profitability. This year, visitors to Marco (stand 206) will be able to see firsthand how two new solutions are bringing further levels of valuable process visibility and efficiency.
Marco’s Stock Control Solution provides visibility of all picked stock from the farm and throughout the packing process to ensure efficient stock rotation. In tandem with this, its Waste Management Solution provides complete visibility of ‘where’ and ‘why’ waste is generated throughout the client’s operation.
This real-time information allows supervisors to see at a glance how much waste is being produced and from which part of the process. If the waste is generated at the time fruit is packed, this can be directly traced back to where the fruit originated. If the waste problem is process initiated, supervisors can rapidly identify the source, whether it be an over-zealous packer, rogue heat sealer or ‘heavy-handed’ conveyor system.
Marco’s managing director Murray Hilborne said: “With double-digit improvements already being achieved by our clients, anyone involved in soft-fruit packing should spend time with our experts to learn more about our profitability solutions and return on investment commitment.”
